ttitansfan4life Posted June 9, 2022 Share Posted June 9, 2022 (edited) 6 runs in 3 games. What a pathetic performance. Nevermind the ****ty bullpen and starting Packy freaking Naughton in 1 game. It doesn’t matter when the worthless offense scores 6 runs. This series shows exactly why this team isn’t a legit team. Dak and Miles had two very good starts and we get nothing out of it.

Still not a good look to get swept. I mean if this team makes the playoffs and wants to play into October, they’re going to have to beat good pitchers and good teams. I don’t think they’re capable of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We looked good against San Diego. I didn’t think we looked completely overmatched(except the Packy start) against Tampa either. We hit the ball hard today, just a bunch of atom balls. Baseball is weird. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWood21 Posted June 10, 2022 Author Share Posted June 10, 2022 I'm sure everyone else missed it too, but it looks like former 63rd overall pick Tink Hence was sent to Palm Beach (Low-A) about a month ago, and the early returns are impressive. 4 GP, 12 IP, 14.25 K/9, 3.75 BB/9, 0 HR/9, 0.75 ERA, 1.53 FIP Obviously this comes with the usual SSS concerns, but those early returns are impressive. The Cardinals have played him slowly as he spent all last year and the beginning of this year in EST, and he's been limited to just 3 IP for every start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems like an exciting pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like there was a little talk of him being a potential two-way player when we drafted him (a la Masyn Winn). Any idea if that's still a possibility? Either way, those early numbers are definitely impressive. Hopefully he can keep it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Early reports seem to favor his low-to-mid 90s fastball and a hammer curve. I've always preferred my pitchers to have at least 3 pitches they can rely on to throw strikes, preferably with two of them being out pitches. He kinda comes in the same mold as Ronnie Williams whom I was high on when they took him out of HS back in 2014. Tink is definitely one of the pitchers to keep an eye on this season. He was one of the pitchers that I would peg as a helium guy alongside Edwin Nunez and Gordon Graceffo coming into the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least not in the same sense that Masyn Winn was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StLunatic88 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Well this group scraps that’s for sure. But they also play to their competition, which is pretty infuriating Maybe Flaherty brings a killer instinct to this team when he comes back? Doesn’t feel like there’s anyone else on the roster who will bingo that right now. Don’t think Oli instills that, Yadi and Albert are too busy leading the chuckle head gang. And as much as I like him him Waino is no Chris Carpenter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttitansfan4life Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 The offense just is flat out bad right now. Any decent pitcher and they struggle big time. Better just hope to get those pitchers out of the game and hopefully a bad or mediocre bullpen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgarrett12486 Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Anyone been following what Matt Carpenter has been doing since he got called up to the Yankees? he had a historical game (that's hard to do with that organization) yesterday. He’s now slashing a monstrous .333/.467/1.125 with six homers and 13 RBI through his first 10 games with the Bombers. In doing so, he became the first player in Yankees franchise history to hit six home runs in his first 10 games with the ballclub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
